Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

This will completely destroy any semblance of freedom remaining on the internet. This is full blown Big Brother shit.
DO NOT LET THIS PASS.
If it does, that's the end of freedom on the internet. Which in turn will likely just be the full on end of the internet.

Holy shit, 95 THOUSAND photos from the Epstein files were just released. And surprise surprise, Trump's ALL OVER them. As are a shit-ton of other people. The rest of the files have to be released by the 19th. This week is going to be CRAZY. And it's about fucking time. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles
🚨 BREAKING: Oversight Dems received 95,000 new photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate. These disturbing images raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world.
Time to end this White House cover-up. Release the files!

Wow. What an absolute shit idea that I'm sure won't backfire in any way whatsoever. So glad I never subscribed in the first place. Now I definitely won't. EVER.

Looks fun, I know some people are ripping on the cast but c'mon, it's like a 45 second teaser. I think it looks fun, cast looks pretty good to me & especially like that they seem to have embraced the cheese. Hell they even did the car thing! 😂 youtu.be/0pRfaGPUGTI #StreetFighter #StreetFighterMovie

Some good news. There needs to be a LOT more pushback like this.
***Finally*** managed to convince my boss not to use genAI in company-branded ads, photos and videos bc it’s toxic to the brand’s integrity (among other reasons), and
on the one hand I’m glad that they’re at least committing to that
but also sad that it had to be fought for at all
I’m so tired

Always delighted to discover new Orson Welles stuff I never knew existed before.
Been a longtime since I had a TV night as good as back to back Chair Company Ep 7 and Orson Welles’ Fountain of Youth (a pilot for an anthology series.) Can you imagine a world where they were multiple seasons of this show? youtu.be/pKjtLOOBqgk

One big difference. The workers on the right endangered their lives by choice. The plutocrats on the left are endangering everyone's lives and we have no choice.
It's fitting that the cover on AI mindlessly apes an earlier creation and also displaces workers while elevating Silicon Valley plutocrats.

Ugh. THAT'S the new freebie we've been waiting for this week? Fuck supporting that hate-filled woman in any way. Even for "free." The whole franchise needs to be shelved permanently. It's just directly funding hate now.

Yep. It is literally that simple. STOP. USING. IT. Make it as unprofitable as possible for these fucks. The less people use it, the less money they make, the less impact to the environment, etc. We didn't need AI before, we sure as fuck don't need it now. JUST. STOP. USING. IT.
Seriously, if you're still using ChatGPT and Meta stuff and anything that helps these fuckos, I'm asking you to stop. Human to human, please, stop giving them money, stop giving them clicks, stop assisting in their destruction of the planet and so much more.
Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans.
Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills.
Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.

Dear BBC,
Stop with the AI upscaling shit with Classic Doctor Who Blu-rays. Just stop. It looks awful and no one wants it. You are losing sales. Offer disc replacements for the sets that used it & go back to whatever you used for the first SIXTEEN sets. Those looked great. Thanks.

Productive day today! Finally finished editing the remaining 15 parts of my playthrough of The Thing Remastered, along with a few clips of notable/funny bits/interesting chat, and found out a couple ways to FULLY DISABLE Google's unwanted garbage AI features in Chrome.

So true. I've been a night owl since I was a teenager. for me, I like the peace and quiet of the late hours, lets me focus more on whatever I'm working on. Oh I can force myself to a day schedule if I need to, but unless I have to I always drift back to nights.

Interesting artistic choice. I assume the small plank is Baby Jesus and the two bigger planks are Mary and Joseph? Which plank is the Angel? The anti-smoking messages on the cardboard really sell the whole thing, nice touch.
